"The Moving Mandala is an honouring of all that we are, empowering us to remember our unique selves, and to connect fully with the beauty of this Earth. It is a transformational process that enables healing to happen within the self which then ripples out, like a stone skimmed across water.
The creative arts, the natural world and spirituality weave together to create a powerful container where Alchemy can happen." ~ Sue-Claire "Prancing Horse"

​"Among other things the Moving Mandala is about being in our power. It's about reclaiming our own authenticity, embracing our gifts and fully expressing who we are. It is about acknowledging our own aliveness and the aliveness of everything that we encounter. And it's about remembering that we are nature, we are the oceans and the rivers, we are the stars and the stones. We are the wild landscapes of Mother Earth and we are the power and possibility that lives within all creation." ~ Lorriiii Dragon Dream

"The Moving Mandala is a unique and different experience every time.  I Love the structure, the strong container of the Moving Mandala.  Within this structure, this container, one never knows quite how the energy will unfold.  It is informed by the people present and what is needed in the moment.  The Moving Mandala allows for creativity in the moment, and for the potential and possibility of each person present to arise and allows one to move more fully into who they are, into their wholeness of being!" ~ Breny Mason

"The energy of the Mandala comes from the potential of space into being through practice and relationship, and encircles us with the protection that which we need while going into such vulnerable, deep places within ourselves. It’s not a socialized-polite practice; it’s married to the wild and free, within the sacred geometry that augments intention." ~ Nancy Dancing Light

ABOUT THE MOVING MANDALA

For thousands of years the Mandala (Sanskrit for Circle) has been used to establish Sacred Space. A powerful source of creative inspiration and a symbol for wholeness, the Mandala, has been called “the Basic Structure of Creation” and is a reminder of our infinite connection to Divine Source.

Held safely in community support and within the sacred & creative container of the 12 Pointed Star Mandala, Moving Mandala Shamanic Training participants receive 7 shamanic initiations corresponding to the 7 Chakras and related Elements. Through Shamanic Journeywork, Creative Expression, Song, Story Telling, Drumming, Colour Work, Dance, Sacred Ceremony and much more, participants journey into the mystery of Being, into the rainbow, into that magical space between the physical and mythical realms, where the skies touch the misty waters and we are home.

Whether you practice Yoga, Shamanism, Meditation, Energy Medicine, Intuitive Movement or any Earth-Based Spiritual Practice, you may be a candidate for this powerful Shamanic Training.

  1. The Moving Mandala training reinforces personal and spiritual practice through raising your vibration and accompanying you to a new level of awareness. Among many other things, The Moving Mandala as a shamanic path is about being in our power. It's about reclaiming our own authenticity, embracing our gifts and fully expressing who we are. It is about acknowledging our own aliveness and the aliveness of everything that we encounter. And it's about remembering that we are nature, we are the oceans and the rivers, we are the stars and the stones. We are the wild landscapes of Mother Earth and we are the power and possibility that lives within all creation.
​
The Moving Mandala Shamanic programs are experiential with focus on opening to Spirit through the expression of shamanic journeying, sound, colour, movement and the arts.

The roots of this practice are ancient and universal and can be applied in a contemporary setting.

Picture
The Moving Mandala is typically taught as an 8-session course over various time periods, ranging from from 4 days to 4 months, funnelling participants through a rainbow of colour within a 12 point mandala:
  • Root/Earth = red
  • Sacral/Water = orange
  • Solar Plexus/Fire = yellow
  • Heart/Air = green
  • Throat/Sound/Space = turquoise blue
  • Third Eye/Light = indigo
  • Crown/Divine Mind = purple
  • Archetypal Realm = Gold
On the final day of dance, drum and sounding, we celebrate from the archetypal realm, in the energetic, releasing with gratitude all that was experienced and learned, with gratitude, into the ethers.

These gifts of dance, drum and sounding are personal tools that may be called upon to amplify all transmissions you receive during training. And will accompany you to any time and/or place where individual or group healing is desired and to re-establish wholeness within your community.
We also offer Moving Mandala Teacher Training by invitation. Details to follow soon.

A year long Moving Mandala Master Shamanic Practitioner Training Program is also available by invitation and with the prerequisite of attending at least 3 Moving Mandala Training retreats.

We hope you will join us in discovering oneness and maintaining connection with the sacred in all things.

About the Creator and Founder of The Moving Mandala
​Nancy "Dancing Light" Sherwood

http://www.travellersjoy.ca/nancy-sherwood.html

Contemporary Grandmother Shaman, Intuitive Dancer and Healer.

Nancy's shamanic practice began with an initiation in 1987, when she simultaneously received the name "Dancing Light," and the gift of intuitive dance and healing. Nancy's intuitive movement embodies messages from the spirit world to show people their essence, strengths, illnesses. This awakens them to their own wisdom. Nancy also works with other dancers to help them open up to their native creativity and fine tune their expression.

Nancy's training has included traditional teachings and contemporary expression from both living and Spirit teachers. While her genetic inheritance is mostly Celtic, she has learned from shamanic traditions as diverse as the Bon, Miq'maq, ancient Celtic and North American Blackfoot. Other teachings have come from meditation practice, and teachings and transmissions from ancient and living mystics. As a result, her shamanic work translates across cultures and she is comfortable working with a number of healing systems and modalities. For her, spirit is creative fire.

HOW DOES THE SHAMANIC MANDALA JOURNEY WORK 
BY NANCY DANCING LIGHT

Picture


My own contribution in bringing East and West together, came through direct guidance and nearly thirty years of practice seeking different energetic landscapes and experiencing the energy of various cultures within those landscapes, so that I could bring some structure as well, to the energy being directed through movement, sound, colour and consciousness, all of which are aspects of light. Since we are energy beings, this sense of how it works can be useful not only responding to change, but in bringing it about.


When I go into a situation to seek, I need to empty my mind in order to let the answers come; the form in which they come may look like dancing, singing, chanting, mudras, felt shifts, and I receive sense impressions, words, and images as well. Often after the journey may write or draw, but the time spent in the timeless realm is where the energy is shifted from whatever I brought in with me, and was attached to, to releasing it and allowing something fresh to enter the space. I have had to learn to trust that it is whatever is needed at the time. This affects not only myself but my client and/or large gatherings of people who come together to re-balance and heal. I am using healing and re-balancing interchangeably.

Actually I think that we carry a template of wellness and wholeness and that time in the timeless, where we “forget” our conditioned selves, allows us to get out of our own way and let the soul recall what wholeness is; if the soul is experiencing this, it affects the body, which is being aligned with the soul. Because we are energy beings, we get primed to very high vibrations of light again when we enter a circle where intention to heal is being held. That is why the mandala form is useful for letting the interconnectedness and wholeness of our being come into consciousness. We journey into an eternal held space.

The Moving Mandala Dance by Nancy Dancing Light Sherwood

Picture
The mandala has inherent wholeness in its design. In Sanskrit it means circle. It is a sacred cosmic architecture which when entered, allows us to bring that sense of Oneness and wholeness to earth. The Moving Mandala uses the sacred geometry of a 12 point mandala for an energetic container, having 4 cardinal directions within the 12, and thirteenth point in the centre. The body’s chakras, right up to the archetypal level, hold the potential for us to shift energy as light beings. Those familiar with 3-d mandalas will recall how they can look, instead of the usual 2-d ones we see for contemplation. You can imagine yourself as part of a 3-d mandala with your energy centres radiating out to the 12 directions and yourself, in the centre.

The courses I have been teaching in the last decade or so have made the mandala principles accessible to people who might not be familiar with it and who are on the shamanic path. There are other ways to access the mandala practices, Vajrayana Buddhism being one of them, and I appreciate that those traditional lineages that are available through great teachers have come to the West. I do not need to borrow from them as if I were shopping, because we access the same source of wisdom, although we each have our own filters and training. It is not a competition, but a great design of co-operation and generosity that the universe is providing, giving us many ways to recall our true nature.
My sitting practice, which began before the shamanic path, has been invaluable as a way to stabilize i my mind, and I give thanks to those that have gone before me. After several years of doing my own mandala practice I also went to India to receive the Kalachakra, another mandala, in a location where the teachings originated through Shakyamuni Buddha; I tend to see the energetics of place that speak to me as well as the current offering that is being made.

During my years of seeking to understand, I have been deeply committed to Native American practices as well. One of the teachers spoke in the lodge one day, reflecting that he didn’t see a spiritual materialist and wannabe, he saw a person who had to go around the whole wheel in this lifetime and take the essence of that journey for the benefit of myself and all our relations. And we are all wannabes on another level, as the generosity of the indigenous people in sharing the medicine, has been remarkable, considering the chequered history of imperialist cultures interacting with various native cultures, going back to ancient times.

The Moving Mandala is only one way to train but it is a good way, with many, many shamanic journeys in it and thousands of air miles now. That is, when we co-ordinate our intention to join that cosmic template with the earth’s seasons, place of power and human energy centres, beneficial results have come about for many, many people, in different settings and continents. It is a young program compared to the mandala itself, which is older than time, but that means its roots go deep and that it is a contemporary expression of healing pouring into our time.
Picture

"The Mandala Dance itself is where time and the timeless meet, where when we forget to be self-conscious and join the collective energy of the moment. With trained people, the Mandala Dance, which is a form of journeying, can bring a whole community to another level of awareness together.

Focused community experiences are necessary to build the kind of strength and courage that we need in this century. When we leave the Mandala Dance, we are more aligned within light, in soul and body, and with all those in the energy field within which we participate. An extension of the actual mandala journey is the mandala of our individual lives, the mandala of shamanic community and/or the mandala of the earth and heaven that resonates with different energies and awareness of the beings with which that we are dancing life.

The dance of life is not a metaphor, it is a reality, the dance of the atoms, of the particles smaller than the human eye, our emotions, our thoughts, our stories, our chemistry and biology, are all expressions of dancing light. This is my medicine." Nancy Sherwood

​What People are Saying

​"I have gotten to experience the workings of Loriii! I have attended a Celtic retreat and my first Moving Mandala just this fall in New Brunswick. May I stress the word first as in my heart I believe there will be more I attend. On that note Lori has a soft and gentle nature while teaching. She also carries the structure and discipline to keep on course. The gifts with in Myself that I came home with after attending both events I personally can not find the words to quite explain. The changes are subtle but far reaching. Every time I release a piece of baggage it makes me very proud to know I release it for my ancestors also. I came home and looked into my sons eyes and thought and felt how I am releasing these things so my son doesn’t have to play this part out. The work done at these shops will last longer than your physical body. I highly recommend attending any workshop being facilitated by Lori or her brothers and sisters. They are well trained in what they are doing on their paths." ~  Blessings Brittany Frost, Westport, NS

"I have participated in Moving Mandalas as well as attending a pilgrimage (to Ireland) with Lori. I found I was provided a space where I was able to dive deep and see myself in new ways. Both experiences allowed me to explore my truth and step into a new part of who I am. They were a very important part of my Journey." K B

"Loriiii brings the group to presence, by the example of her divine self. She has an ability to bring the group, no matter the size to oneness, unity, spiritual connectedness and love." ~ A. D.

"I have known Lori for more than six years. We met over the love of animals. She was kind, caring, and always very spiritual. I wondered how she stayed that way in these crazy times.
I confided in Lori about an incident that left me very upset. I wasn't sure how to handle it. She listened patiently and then asked me if I would like to drum with her and a few others. The night I went to drumming, I was very nervous and I really didn't have a clue what was going to happen. I wasn't pressured to do anything. That night changed my life forever. I felt free, calmer and had inner peace for the first time in a very long time. I didn't realize at the time I was grounded. I could handle my problem, in a positive way. It wasn't a one time fix but, what a great beginning, to a new me.
Every time I can drum, participated in a Moving Mandala and/or fire walk, I do. I become a stronger, more spiritual and positive person. At peace with the world and more importantly at peace with myself.
Thank you Lori for showing me the way.
Love Forever,"

"With the greatest love and care, Lori Folkins is able to create at her Firewalk, a sacred space wherein you can feel embraced by a special and unique moment in time that serves you in your highest need to connect with Spirit and push through the barriers of limitation that are both literally and symbolically done so as you take your first steps across the bed of hot coals. Because of her passionate heartfelt dedication to the development of each participants personal journey and their commitment to uphold their own personal transformation to the highest, Lori is able to achieve miraculous results of inner releasing, cleansing and spiritual transmutation of which I have both witnessed and have experienced first hand. I cannot express deeply enough my gratitude for the shifts and changes that have appeared within my life since participating in her Firewalk. I can only urge those of you who are looking to transcend the limitations that so frustratingly appear over and over again in your life to seek Lori out and allow the Light & Love that she pours into each Firewalk, to change you as it has so greatly changed me and so many others. Thank you, Lori and Namaste." Timothy M

“The first time I met Lori was at a spiritual gathering, that I had attended by myself. During a workshop she commented ‘Sometimes you are the dreamer and sometimes you are the dream.’ The truth of that statement struck me and I had to thank her. She told me it was a song and she proceeded to sing it to me. She has sang to me quite a few times since then and has even sent me messages of songs. She is a kind and gentle soul who immediately puts you at ease. Lori is a gift to everyone she meets. I am thankful for her friendship, her messages, her drum circles, her fire walks and all that she offers the world.” ~Kathy Upper -Chief Visionary, Spiritual Niagara

"Thank you Lori for your guidance and inspiration of such a magical circle last night.

"I’ve been so fortunate to experience the impactful work of Lori Anne. In a world filled with Chaos, Lori Anne is the “Calm” and a true inspiration!" ~ Anna Scott- Intuitive Artist.

"Once returned to "reality", it's much noticeable how a workshop like this is so extraordinary.
So much great experiences, meetings, and gathering with souls like mine. It's always a chance and an opportunity to grown emotional and spiritually to grab it and immurge oneself into a workshop like this."

Journeying's the best medicine !!
It worths the nine hours drive from Quebec, I can tell you that
excuse my english, I'm more of a french speaking person !"

"I have participated in Moving Mandalas as well as attending a pilgrimage (to Ireland) with Lori. I found I was provided a space where I was able to dive deep and see myself in new ways. Both experiences allowed me to explore my truth and step into a new part of who I am. They were a very important part of my Journey." K B

Loriiii brings the group to presence, by the example of her divine self. She has an ability to bring the group, no matter the size to oneness, unity, spiritual connectedness and love. A.D.

Lori’s humility, dedication, wisdom, courage, honesty, and generosity boil down into that healing kind of love that inspires and motivates. J.D.

"Thanks for another awesome circle and for bringing all the beautiful souls together. Truly Blessed" R.C.


Truly and from my heart, I can say that every experience I’ve had with Lori has been wonderfully revealing. Her intuitive guidance, whether in group events or one on one sessions has been valuable for me each and every time. I’ve been fortunate to enjoy drum circles, fire walks, individual coaching sessions and more. And perhaps because I was open enough to the spiritual aspect of change, found them to be as much or more than I had expected. I am happy to have benefited in healing ways as well as ways that have altered my perception of what life is and can be. I absolutely look forward to future events and coaching. I encourage others who are open to positive change to seek Lori out through one of her events or to access her energy and wisdom in what ever way is mutually agreeable.

"This year long experience has enhanced my life in astounding ways this past year. Thank you, from the bottom of my hear and soul, to our leaders, Brenda & Lori, for creating such an amazing program. The entire program was professional, intriguing and personal" ~ Jude Steeves re 2021 Journey Around the Celtic Wheel.


Thank you so much, Lori and Brenda, for the magnificent leadership, the dedication and the hours of work and for the open hearted sincerity. The beauty of your souls, which shined through it all and that I experienced from you both on this Journey Around the Celtic Wheel, has been so meaningful. I hope that the many blessings that you’ve given me and each of us in this circle will continue to grow and flow in the years to come. Eliza S re. 2021 Journey around the Celtic Wheel.
